Kettle Pizza owners have you seen this?

So the Baking Steel made for the KP obviates the need to run a second cooking grate to support an alternative heat blocker? If so, that's even better so that you don't be roachin' a cook grate with crazy pizza heat.

Do you also have the tombstone and pro-grate?

No, I use a 1/4" thick piece of steel, on a modified grate, as the cooking surface.

I want to fabricate something very similar to this using 16 gauge aluminum sheet.

doesn't aluminum dissipate heat VERY quickly?

Maybe ... I'm no scientist ... Just a backyard bbq guy who likes to tinker .... And, it won't cost $100 + shipping.
I also use fire brick on that level.

You're probably better off just using a standard cooking grate with firebricks arranged on top

Has anyone done this.  I think it would be a great idea and pretty easy to do.  the cooking grate and fire brick idea sounds like a perfect pizza oven to me.

This is what I currently use with my KP set-up on the upper level.  It's easy to do and works great.
